Garsh...thanks...but it ain't me. It's that search engine. I very highly, with
utmost conviction, recommend dogpile to everybody. Darn thing can find almost
anything! An' it's pretty accurate too, a heck of lot better than most I've
used so far.

When you type in a word or subject, the sites you get back really do have
something to do with what you're looking for...at least in my experience it
has. Other search engines I've used spit back all kinds of sites that have
absolutely zilch to do with what you're trying to find.

One time I used Aol Find (the absolute worst!) looking for a surface mount
diode trying to find one for a customer who bought a PTH one for their proto.
I type in SOT23 figuring it would bring up a bunch of vendor pages that I
could search. It did, but one of links it gave me, I kid you not, was "The
Heavens Gate" page! What a bunch of people trying to get on a spaceship and
SOT23's have in common taxes EVEN MY imagination!

Here's a 'nuther neat thing dogpile found, go to http://www.justin.com
